Hello,
I was wondering if someone could give me some insight.
I'm getting my dosing pump soon and was wondering if I could double the concentration and dose less in mL.
For example, I have 40 gallons of water. My calcium is at 400 and I would like to raise it to 420. BRS recommends I add 81.8 mL of calcium to raise it to 420 when I mix 2.5 cups of calcium chloride into 1 gallon. If I were to mix 5 cups of calcium chloride into 1 gallon, could I add 40.9 mL of calcium to raise it to 420 instead?
Also, what would be a good starting point for the automatic dosing for 40 gallons of water?
I saw on a youtube video and it told me to take volume of water and divide by 25 and multiply by 15 to get mL per day.
